Trump is in Putin's pocket - his tough guy act yesterday ("he won't muck me around") is as hollow as....everything else he ever says.

It's no coincidence that Zelensky is spending more time with European leaders for assurances - he knows he can't rely on Trump to help him out.

Putin will dominate proceedings. He will concede nothing. Trump will then turn to Zelensky with a paltry offer, and he'll say in no uncertain terms that Trump can Foxtrot Oscar.

And the war will continue.

Rinse and repeat.
